What do you like best?

Meeting apps are mostly all the same but this one does stand out a little more. I wouldn't go out of my way just to purchase this one though. If you guys already use Office 365, use Skype for business, if you already use some other company for a service, and they off meeting software, you might as well bundle as much as you can. That being said, this is a great product and works well for guests without needing admin rights to install anything, and it's very light-weight program that seems to work every time. It is based off "Zoom" meeting software just like many other solutions. They have great integrations into Google and Microsoft products.

What do you dislike?

Nothing mind-blowing better than many other chat offerings. This is a good one but if you can find a cheaper one or bundle with a current provider, I would recommend trying those first.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Try to bundle a meeting app with a current provider first, but if you don't have anything else, this is definitely a grade A solution.

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Creating a calendar event in Outlook with a meeting ID automatically is great. It also works well with Google Calendar. Video conferencing and screen sharing does everything you would hope it would do. We also recorded training sessions to later replay so we don't need to do the same thing each time.

What do you like best?

I enjoy the ease of using Ring central. It connects the office staff and field staff easily when work phones are not provided. It is easy to search collegeues by their positions and names.

What do you dislike?

While it is nice as an app, this can be difficult to reach people all the time. It comes through as a phone call, but if your phone does not have WiFi at all times, it can be difficult to receive these messages. Joining in on a webinar is made simple by sending direct emails that connects you straight to your meeting.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Would be nice to use the texting feature to outside clients as well as colleagues.

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

RingCentral solves the ever growing problem of not being in two places at once. It lets you join in from anywhere or any time so you do not have miss a beat if you cannot make it to the meeting physically. Telecommunication is the way of the future and Ringcentral is helping us get there.

What do you like best?

Meetings is really easy to use and can be accessed from computer, smartphone or tablet. You can record and turn it into a webinar, share screen or even transfer to another host.

What do you dislike?

I have not encountered anything I dislike about the service yet

Recommendations to others considering the product

It is so simple to use and can be accessed from multiple platforms including smartphones, PC and tablets. We record training sessions and make them available online so that team members can view at their convenience. This is just one of the services that comes with our RingCentral Office

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

This allows us to share news, events and training with our team members and can be recorded for new team members that are on boarding. We have also used this for recruiting

What do you like best?

RingCentral has a fairly simple platform for sharing information and is easy for customers outside of my company's organization to join and share.

What do you dislike?

Some customers with high security settings are unable to access the platform / see screen which is shared due to their company restrictions

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We work with customers remotely very frequently to help configure their software, resolve issues, and collaborate. RingCentral allows us to easily collaborate and share with end customers including recording training sessions, ask customers to share their screen, and take control of their screen if required.

What do you like best?

Integration with Microsoft Office (desktop) makes creating meetings pretty seamless. Most times the invitees don't have to install anything to join the web meeting but this seems inconsistent as other times people have told me they do have to install something to view our meeting which can be a hassle with some companies that don't allow installation of software. For the most part calls don't get dropped and they don't have outages.

What do you dislike?

Support is pretty poor when there are issues it takes awhile to get a response

Recommendations to others considering the product

Give others a try as well, such as join.me, etc.

What do you like best?

Once connection was established it was easy enough to gain mouse control, and more often than not was pretty stable and not very resource heavy on use connections/computers. Annotations worked well with it although there could be more variety with potential premade annotations.

What do you dislike?

Found it somewhat difficult for end users to be able to establish the screen share. Business dealt with users who were not particularly tech savvy and have to provide very specific instructions in order to screenshare.

Recommendations to others considering the product

Make sure users go over preference settings otherwise it can be clunky

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

We use it to establish remote control of client machines in order to assist with troubleshooting

What do you like best?

We are using RingCentral to allow our remote locations volunteers to participate to the monthly meeting. We are also using it to connect with every other organizations across the country. It's easy to use, you can show a screen and people's faces and have control over microphones

What do you dislike?

the installation, even if quite easy is not accessible to some of our memebers who are not very computer savy, it also requires to install a software on a compute which is not always possible for everyone (ex: office computer, etc.)

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

Connecting with our branches all over the province. Our members can participate to important meetings without having to fly all the way here which is saving a couple of hundreds dollars each time.

What do you like best?

I like Ringcentral because its user friendly and easy to schedule meetings. I mostly use Ringcentral for webex meetings and its pretty simple to use compared to other meeting platforms.

What do you dislike?

Not sure if this is a hardware issue or a ring central issue, but I am never able to use my headphones during my webex meetings. The others on the receiving end can never hear me, I always have to dial in using my phone.

Recommendations to others considering the product

When an issue pops up in Ring Central, there is an option to send the issue to support right from the platform. I have submitted many requests and have not once heard anything back.

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

I do not use Ringcentral webinars, I use them mostly for Webex meeting.s

What do you like best?

Mobile app forwarding abilities. Ability to reuse the same conference logins over and over.

What do you dislike?

The new update that forces 2 screens to open up (1 for sharing your screen, 1 for viewing others). The application is blocked by a lot of large corporations because of security threats. Sometimes this forces us to use different software applications like Skype or Goto meeting

What business problems are you solving with the product? What benefits have you realized?

What do you like best?

Quickly being able to navigate around the software/app in order to fax, call, text, or have webinar meetings.

What do you dislike?

We have sometimes experienced a bit of a problem with the audio or the quality of the audio on large group webinars.

Recommendations to others considering the product

All I can say about it (like any web conferencing) be sure that yourself and your participants are in an area with a good internet connection so it doesn't cause issues- especially the more users you get on there.
